Subject: [time-nuts] Off-Topic Question -- German Composition Resistors


While tracing out a PC board from an instrument manufactured in Germany, I  
uickly discovered the color code on 1/4-watt composition resistors is not  
he same as that commonly used in the US  For example, I would measure  
bout 10,000-ohms across a presumably good resistor that appeared to be marked  
700-ohms.  Has/does Germany used a different code for such parts?
